生物医学经历了爆炸式增长，部分原因是政府支持的大幅增加，生物技术产业的持续发展以及越来越多地采用基于分子的药物。它的核心是由非常独立，创新，创业的个人，组织和机构组成。该领域已经发展出前所未有的能力，能够在最基本的层面上描述生物系统的特征，使用的工具和技术在一代人以前几乎是不可想象的。生物医学正处于解开生物生命本质的边缘，并使新一代医学成为可能。开发和部署网络基础设施可能是实现这些目标的关键途径。
Biomedicine has experienced explosive growth, fueled in parts by the substantial increase of government support, continued development of the biotechnology industry, and the increasing adoption of molecutar-based medicine. At its core, it is composed of fiercely independent, innovative, entrepreneurial individuals, organizations, and institutions. The field has developed unprecedented capacity to characterize biologic systems at their most fundamental levels with the use of toots and technologies almost unimaginable a generation ago. Biomedicine is at the precipice of unlocking the very essence of biologic life and enabling a new generation of medicine. Development and deployment of cyberinfrastructure may prove to be on the critical path to obtaining these goals.
